Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

Researchers in Denmark are testing whether a cross-sector support program called My Avenue to HelP (MAP) can be delivered as intended for youths aged 12 to 17 with multiple social and psychological problems. MAP uses principles from Adaptive Mentalization-Based Integrative Treatment (AMBIT) and assigns each young person a key worker and a mentalizing case manager who work with the existing network of schools, social services, and mental health care. The study enrolls 40 youths to receive the one-year intervention and compares them with 20 youths who receive usual management. The trial measures whether families agree to take part, whether staff can maintain regular contact, and how satisfied participants and professionals are with the approach.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Adaptive Mentalization-Based Integrative Treatment (AMBIT), a team-based approach to coordinating care across services
What this could lead to
If the approach proves feasible, it could give mental health and social services a practical model for coordinating care around vulnerable youths. That may help young people stay engaged with support and build lasting changes.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study, not a test of whether the approach actually improves outcomes. The trial may show that recruitment, retention, or cross-sector collaboration is too difficult to carry out at scale, and any benefits may not hold beyond the study period.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 60 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Mar 2025

Expected to finish

Jan 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

12 to 17 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Criterium A) Documented record of multiple problems defined as at least 2 of the following: (i) Absence from school / non-adherence to education (ii) Risk behaviors like alcohol or cannabis abuse, or repeated suicide attempts or self-harm requiring somatic treatment.(iii) Repeated visits at emergency-, trauma-, or acute wards. And/or one of the following: (iv) Contact with police or legal justice system. (v) Homelessness within the last year. * Criterium B) Age 12-17 years at time of inclusion. * Criterium C) Strong indication of mental disorders defined as a diagnosis of a mental disorder. The type of mental disorders will be further substantiated using the DAWBA after recruitment (Goodman et al., 2000). * Criterium D) Written/signed informed consent from all legal guardians (in most cases both parents) and oral consent from youths aged 15 years and older. Written/signed informed consent from the youths themselves will be collected when they turn 18 if they do so during the study period. Exclusion Criteria: * Indications of substantial intellectual disability corresponding to IQ below 50, or a level of daily and social functions that do not enable participation in research (e.g., if the young person is not deemed to have the capacity to understand the implications of the study and provide oral consent). * Not living in Region Zealand.
